Chereads / MEANT TO BE (BEING ELVA) / Chapter 9 - chapter 9

Chapter 9 - chapter 9

💎Mig's POV💎

We both walked to the couch..Or rather,i walked while she limped,we sat down and a smile lit up my face.

The thought of Elva not avoiding even after witnessing that...I felt happy there is someone apart from Fleur and my parents who likes me the way i am..

She really surprised me,i thought she would have picked her bag and left but i was wrong..

"Now you look more cute when you smile" Elva said and i found myself grinning more..

"Mig you are blushing" She said and laughed.

"No i'm not" I defended.

"Lie !! I saw you" She teased and i faked a frown.

"awwn sorry" She said

"Where's Fleur ?" I asked.

"Oh..She went to attend to an emergency" Elva said.

Ok

"Ohh...Why don't you come with me to the kitchen,let's make our breakfast even if it's too late to be called breakfast" I said and she smiled.

"Ok" She stood up limping before me to the kitchen.

...

"Elva just sit,i will do the cooking" I said.

shifting a kitchen stool towards her.

"No i will help" She said and i shook my head.

"I would have allowed you help but you ankle still hurt and you can't be limping to and fro in the kitchen..Just sit and watch me okay" I said and she nodded sitting.

"Now what should i make ? Brocolli,soup,casserole,spinach salad...I virtually know how to make all the dishes" I boasted.

"Really ?" She asked.

"Yes, Mum taught me all i need to know" I said with pride.

"Ok i want you to make...." Elva said.

"What ?" I asked.

"Brocolli" She said with a doubt.

"Ohh..That's the simplest of all meals" I said and started bringing out ingredient for Brocolli.

I placed them on the kitchen table and tied an apron around me.

Elva kept looking at every move i took,that gave me more morale..

She smiled at me frequently and i also did the same.

***

"Wow..The aroma is enticing, Mig you're a very good cook" Elva said and i smiled.

"Thanks"

The brocolli is ready and i'm now dishing it out in two plates,i remained some for Fleur.

I placed the two plates of brocolli on a tray.

"Allow me help with that" Elva said already getting down from the stool,she took it from me before i could object then limped with it to the dining..

I took two bottles of water and glass cups after her.

We sat at the dining..

"Now let's enjoy the meal chef Mig prepared" Elva said sarcastically and we chuckled.

We started eating and i can see nodding her head at intervals..She's obviously enjoying my Brocolli.

"Yummy..It tastes very nice" Elva said.

"Ofcourse it will...Don't forget i'm a chef" I said and we giggled.

We finished eating.

"Elva i'm gonna show you round the house,the places Fleur didn't show you" I said.

"Ohh...Really ? then let's go. I want to see it now" She said.

"No you can't" I said and a frown appeared on her face.."It won't be enjoyable if you are still limping,just wait for few more days then we'll go" I said and she nodded.

I stood up and started packing the empty plates back into the tray to go wash them.

"I will wash it" Elva said already standing up to collect it from me.

"No Elva,just sit. I will go wash it" I said.

"Stop treating me like i'm amputated,it's my hand i will use to wash it not my limping ankle..You did the cooking then i should do the dishes..Please" She pleaded.

I gave in after much persuasion,i left Elva to go wash the dishes while i went back to the living room,i sat on the couch,picked up my novel and continued from where i stopped.

Elva joined me few minutes later,she also picked up her's and continued reading.

"I'm back home..Two novel freaks" We heard and looked up.
